They have a good food selection, and this store is not too shabby.

The fresh produce and packaged stuff is okay but I’ve had moldy tasting frozen food from there before. They also tried to charge me $5 per small container of yogurt which seems like either mis-pricing or they’re wildly out of touch with how much to charge for a single serving of yogurt. Don’t go unless it’s your only option.

I've been here a couple of times. The store is clean, the cashiers are friendly, and i never had a problem with them. I don't like getting cold cuts from there. There never seems to be anyone on there anyway. Good for a quick run.

Very convenient for a local marketplace. Perfect for essentially anything home/food related. The prices are super high compared to other chains around though, so not a full 5 rating.

Edit: still the same

Not usually a reviews guy but just want to say the prices here are extortionate. I just paid 9.50 for a tub of Greek yogurt that costs 6.50 everywhere else. One gets the sense that whomever is setting the prices is leveraging the fact that there are not many alternatives in the area. This is certainly no fault of the employees, who have always been kind.

Pretty sad that this is the only grocery store within quick walking distance of me. The staff is always really nice, but this place is just so unreliable. The produce section is often out of essentials (they rarely have fresh herbs at all, quality of other greens is hit or miss), and there's almost always just one cashier on register regardless of how long the line gets.

I'm a Trader Joe's guy so that's my standard for grocery shopping. It's kind of weird to have one person ringing up groceries for me. Their prices are a little steep. If I shopped here the way I shop at traders I'd definitely spend 20% or more for the same amount of food.

This is an old fashioned supermarket. Nothing to distinguish itself. Just a run of the mill market. It's not bad. It has groceries and other necessities one needs for their home. For me I feel like I felt when I was a kid going to the market with mom. I'm 50 now. Lol.

I'll out it like this. I have to travel to shop at Trader Joe's where this is in walking distance and I always shop at Trader Joe's. Their marketing, their prices, their selection, and there's always something new to try. I think if markets like this made a bit if effort to personalize their stores, nothing over the top and offered something new, something fresh, something different it would intrigue and interest customers. It would make them more competitive and it would drive down prices and would create its own ecosystem of loyal shoppers. Then you could afford to have 2 or more cashier's available at all times.
